Síntesis:
In a future where Earth is ravaged by the greed of the wealthy, one woman's desperate act of defiance becomes a journey of transformation and decolonization. Leia Wurahapt, a resolute Numunu (Comanche) woman, struggles to support her extended family in near-future Albuquerque. As head of a large household, she balances the weight of her ancestors' wisdom with the harsh realities of a world teetering on the edge of collapse. Working for a private corporation that exploits public resources, Leia finds herself helping construct escape ships bound for Mars, a last resort for the world's elite to flee their self-inflicted crisis. But Leia has other plans. Fueled by a fierce determination to protect her loved ones and reject the colonial structures that have oppressed her people for centuries, Leia and her former sister-in-law, Olga, hijack one of the ships. With their family and friends in tow, they embark on a voyage to the stars aboard The Futura, leaving Earth behind forever.
